Development of Cryptographic Protocols for the Secure Transfer of Medical Data between Patients with Mobile Devices

Abstract

Within the scope of this master thesis, it will be investigated how medical (especially protective) data can safely be transferred between two smartphones (Android). The goal of the master thesis is the development of cryptographic protocols for secure data transfer.

In the future, patients will store all their health data on their smartphone (see M1721). The smartphone supports the patient in his/her recovery process by providing his or her own data, as well as data of other patients with whom the patient has built a network to achieve health-oriented goals (in competition or cooperatively).
